One o f' the most valuable asset* our nation has is its native birds. Too much cannot be said or written in their favor. Destroy them and in a few years the injurious insects | will have multiplied to such an ex- j tent that trees will be denuded of their foliage, plant* and crops can- | not be produced. There are more than 1,200 species | o f our native birds, and millions of i individuals. As a result of the ex- I animation o f more than 50,000 stomachs of birds, they established beyond a reasonable doubt that birds are of economic value, first in eat ing harmful insects, their eggs and larvae. Second, in eating the seeds o f noxious weeds. Third, in devour ing field mice and other small ro dents that injure the crops, and fourth, in acting as scavengers. W hile the economic value o f birds should be kept in mind the esthetic value should also be considered. Man does not live by broad alone. We should protect them for their grace ful forms, their charming beauty, their delightful melody and their joyous activity.— T h rift Magazine.
